an easier way then going into alliance territory for a grey colored worg. He makes an excelent pet.

Comment by Cento

According to the official World of Warcraft Atlas, this mob is rated as Uncommon rarity with a respawn timer of ~1.5-2.5 hours.

Comment by Zurnagos

found at 50,5 he was walking n' running and killing critters :p

- he drops nothing more than the other Worgs in the area..

Gorefang is one of the 14 rare spawn wolves. He has one special ability and ofcourse his regular melee-attacks which cause an equal damage as his nearby wolves. Rend will make you bleed for 15 seconds.

EDIT: Gorefang learned 2 more attacks when Cataclysm was introduced in 2010. Those attacks are Leaping Charge and Enrage. Enrage increases the attack speed and damage dealt by Gorefang for a little while.

P.S. Ghost Howl used to be marked as a rare spawn (even though he really wasn't one).

Horde Hunter Note: This is for lower level hunters mainly. If you want a 'unique' wolf model, go for this guy. With an uncommon spawn timer, about 2 hours as was posted here, and the fact that the other ones that look like it are common mobs, but all the way in Elwynn (Highly doubt you'll go/make it all the way there on your own, specially on a PvP server), this is a fine choice.

The next time you'll see a wolf that looks like this is about level 40 in the Hinterlands, as a common mob.

Good news for all hunters who are looking to tame this beast!

Spawn timer seems to be under 3 hours, since I've killed it twice in that time now. Good hunting! :)

He doesn't seem to be too rare on my server... I find him quite often when I'm leveling alts. He definately stands out from the other mobs in Silverpine so he isn't too hard to see.

I found it rally easily.. it was something like:

SO.. lets see if we see a white wolf... 5 seconds later: There it is! Tamed

Comment by sevoreth

I think gorefang might be super common. I saw him and decided to tame him to have a "unique" wolf for my new undead hunter. I was near the lake at 58.17 and decided to tame him, he hits decently hard too. After taming him I killed a couple things to finish off my quest and when I walked across the road gorefang was waiting for me there too... about 5 minutes later.

Comment by Tomdagan

I've seen him in two places at once, he was up next to the Forsaken High Command and across the road near the river.

He gives great XP for the level, by the way. At level 12 the normal wolves give me 45 experience (90 with rested), Gorefang gave me over 500 (1041 total with rested). I've killed him twice now, once while doing the quest Gore and Guts, then again after completing a battleground about 20 minutes later.

Comment by Separation

I've killed this rare spawn twice while doing the "Guts and Gore" quest. I killed him on one side of the road as you enter Silverpine, then within 5 minutes I spotted him again on the other side.

With full heirlooms (I was without the guild EXP perk this time) he granted 1336 exp for each kill as a level 12. He is definitely worth looking for if you start in the Silverpine area.

Comment by fyfaendeluxe

Wow, I just got 3704 XP for this guy on my lvl 10 Rogue. 30% bonus from heirloom and rested, but no guild bonus. Gave me more than half a level.

Edit: Killed him again 15mins later, got 3174 rested xp at lvl 11.

Comment by Mandiblez

The awesome thing about this rare spawn is that he tends to spawn extremely fast AND that his spawn points are near each other. Go do a quest or two and kill this bad boy for another quest's worth of EXP and maybe a green goody you could use.

Comment by TheMardraum

I literally killed this guy, tabbed to check his respawn, tabbed back in and he was already back. Couldn't have been 5 minutes. Free experience farm.

Comment by edymybrother

I am working on taming all the rare pets in the game,here is my youtube video of this tamehttp://youtu.be/EELjjeHcQjYplease check it out.

Comment by Mutantgerbil00

Since 5.1 I haven't found Gorefang at either location specified in the map above. After many periodic sweeps I located him further down the coast, just east of Valgan's Field.

If someone can confirm and possibly provide coords that'd be great! Hope this helps!

You can also use the following command to point the TomTom arrow to the closest waypoint to your character: /cway

There is one last mob in this zone: Lost Son of Arugal. He walks the road spanning the entire zone so a single waypointwouldn't help to find him. If you are close to this mob you will receive a harmless debuff: A Chill Runs Up Your Spine.

For an in-game reminder of this mob you can use the following macro:/script print("Lost Son of Arugal walks the road spanning the entire zone, if you are close you will receive the following debuff:")

How do I use this list?TomTom is an in-game navigation addon available to download and install here.After installing the addon you will need to re-launch your game client and create in-game macros using the list above. Place them on your action barsand click each of them to display the waypoints on your map.

This guy can spawn / pat much further south than the 2 points on the map currently indicate and the NPCscan map overlay (if you're using that). I kept riding between these 2 spots for 20+ minutes looking for him and finally just decided to keep going south and all the way down by the river inlets just north of Valgan's Field I found him.
